Adoption Catalyst Architecture

AWS Services

Infrastructure

For Dedicated-Tenant, 47Lining Enterprise PaaS - Adoption Catalyst is an OSDU Data Platform deployed into a single AWS Account. All AWS services used will be launched within and billed to that account. The OSDU Forum provides open source code that is then deployed to AWS and linked to cloud-provider-specific prerequisite services through a Service Provider Interface (SPI). In some cases the infrastructure is dedicated and persistent and in other cases it is serverless or ephemeral.

For Multi-Tenant, 47Lining Enterprise PaaS - Adoption Catalyst includes a data partition instance in an existing shared OSDU Data Platform. All AWS services used will be launched within and billed to existing AWS account. The OSDU Forum provides open source code that is then deployed to AWS and linked to cloud-provider-specific prerequisite services through a Service Provider Interface (SPI). In some cases the infrastructure is shared and persistent and in other cases it is serverless or ephemeral.

Data

When you load the OSDU Data Platform with data, the data platform persists your data using Amazon S3 and Amazon DynamoDB. You use the OSDU Data Platform APIs to load, search for, and retrieve data. Apart from the OSDU Data Platform APIs, neither you nor other users should typically have direct access to the data or to the underlying AWS services used to manage and store data that has been loaded to the data platform.

An administrator of the AWS account where your Adoption Catalyst resides may provide access policies that enable access to these underlying AWS services and resources, but you should use the OSDU Data Platform APIs to interact with your data. Such direct access may sometimes be useful when attempting to diagnose unexpected behavior or other issues to root cause.

Security

In order to provide secure access to the OSDU Data Platform, the entitlements service is used for user and group management. Using this service, users can be granted access to the API endpoints, allowing for certain actions to be undertaken by users of different types. The entitlements service can also be used to grant access to datasets based on a prescribed set of parameters such as geographic region.

Cost

47Lining provides your Adoption Catalyst of the latest development release of the OSDU Data Platform as a metered, consumption-based SaaS service. As described in Pricing, we make your Adoption Catalyst available to you for less than a dollar per month.

This means that you can easily access and use OSDU Data Platform services at minimal cost beyond the cost of the underlying AWS services. Charges for those AWS services will be included on your monthly AWS invoice. A separate item for the minimal monthly charges resulting from your AWS Marketplace subscription to the Adoption Catalyst will also appear on your monthly AWS invoice.
